PAGE TWO Time Running Out For E, F, G Olivers To Be Examined Any Caught Driving Af ter January 1 Subject To Arrest • * The time is fast running out for E, F and G drivers, the Motor Vehicle Department has announced. All drivers with last names begin ning with either E. F or G are re quired to take an examination for a new driver’s license by December 31, as a part of the Highway Safety Act passed by the 1947 General Assembly. The Department reported that this group of drivers had been very slow to report, and that if they procrast inated much longer, it would mean that they would have to wait in long lines to take their tests during the last few days of December. Department officials also announced that the 100 examining stations lo cated throughout the State would be closed several days around Christmas, and that motorists who put off their tests might find it impossible to get them later. There will be absolutely no exten sion to the deadline, the Department said, for E, F and G motorists have had since last July to get these exam inations. Beginning January 1, 1949, persons with last names beginning with H, I, J and K will begin taking their tests. Taking drivers, in alphabetical groups, the re-examination program will be completed June 30, 1951. The Department reported that any E, F or G driver caught driving on an old license after January 1 will be found guilty of a misdemeanor and, will be subject to a fine of not less than $25 or 30 days imprisonment, or both, in the discretion of the court.

I Farmers Warned About Butchering Urged to Take Precau tions Against Erysip elas Among Swine Farmers butchering hogs this win ter are warned to take special pre cautions to protect themselves against ; swine erysipelas if the disease is known to exist on their farms. ' “On farms where swine erysipelas , is a problem, the danger of infection . ’ should not be overlooked at butcher- 1 ’ ing time,” the American Foundation . for Animal Health reported. “In hu- . | man beings, swine erysipelas germs . cause a disease called erysipeloid, ; characterized by painful skin lesions and other complications. “The germ enters the system chief ly through breaks and bruises in the , skin. ' f j “Therefore, if erysipelas has been [ or may be present in the herd, the handler should protect his hands and arms by washing and disinfecting them thoroughly after each animal is butchered.” The danger of human infection was cited as just an added reason for farmers to watch their swine for symptoms of erysipelas and to com bat it promptly if it appears-. “Symptoms of this disease in swine include scaly, dry, reddened skin; sloughing off of pieces of the ears and tail; swollen joints and snouts, ; lethargy and a high temperature,” the American Foundation said. “Unless the trouble is diagnosed , promptly, and infected animals iso- | 'lated, it may run quickly through a .herd, killing many hogs and making others unprofitable for market. More over, swine erysipelas may also in fect other types of livestock and poultry.” COTTON ADVANCES Cotton prices advanced around 3.00 per bale during last week as export market activitiy and mill buying in creased. Middling 15/16 inch cotton averaged 32.22 cents per pound on Friday, December 3, as compared with 31.62 a week earlier and 35.71 a year ago. Eden Theatre] I EDENTON, N. C. Week Day Shows 7 and 9 P.
